Beverley today celebrated Armed Forces Day with a large event in Saturday Market.
It was billed as family event and despite a few alterations to the schedule Beverley Armed Forces Day 2012 proved to be a big hit with the public.
One former solider told me that these events were really important to those who are in active service. He explained that while deployed all over the world it is nice to know that the people back home have them in their thoughts.
While taking pictures of the some of the stands a chap also used to be in the army positively beamed as he was reunited with a SLR rifle that was on one of the stalls.
There was also plenty of entertainment on the stage, including St Nicholas Primary School Choir and the Beverley Male Voice Choir.
